A profoundly decisive change in world history is on the horizon-a transition from governance under fallen man to a government from God Himself. Jesus Christ is going to return and reign over the world with perfect justice. Prophecies in the Bible tell us that due to the rebellion of man against his Maker the time leading up to the second coming of Christ will be intense. In this book, you will find answers to these questions: - What will the last days be like? - What will happen when Jesus returns? - What is the rapture and when will it occur? - How can I prepare for what is coming?
Plague, earthquake and flame: ideas about divinely-inspired disaster and prophecies of doom have an enduring place in the history of Christian thought. For centuries men and women have made preparations for the imminent end of the world, and for the thousand year reign of Christ and his saints. Inspired principally by the startling texts of the Book of Revelation, Christianity has a rich and varied tradition of looking forward to the purifying fires of Armageddon. But what do recurring motifs like the Rapture, pestilence, biblical prophecy and the building of the New Jerusalem really add up to? And how have interpretations of these patterns differed from century to century? Charting a steady course between the feverish predictions of early Christian heretics like the Montanists, and the febrile outpourings of modern-day millennialists such as the Branch Davidians and Christian Zionists in America, John M. Court explores the continuities and differences between their violent visions of cataclysm. His history comprises an incisive analysis of such movements and figures as the Levellers and Diggers, James Jezreel and his Trumpeters, Seventh-Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witnesses, cargo-cults and drug cultures. Embracing two thousand years of intense and fiery admonition, Approaching the Apocalypse offers students of religion, history and politics the definitive handbook to Doomsday.
A global apocalypse is coming-and may be imminent! The Bible predicts a looming Armageddon that brings cataclysmic destruction, worldwide holocaust, and spiritual warfare, reaching a climactic showdown while the fate of the world hangs in the balance. Jesus warned this seven-year era of doom will be unlike any period in human history, making it the ultimate end-times, epic thriller. All of this leaves critical questions to be answered: Will this apocalypse bring the end of the world as we know it? How soon will it hit? How could a good God allow this kind of global disaster as part of his perfect plan? How will this approaching Armageddon affect us? What can we do to prepare for it? In The Impending Apocalypse, theologian and Bible professor John Claeys draws from his thorough research to reveal the surprising answers. Journey through these pages to prepare yourself for what is certainly coming, and you will discover God and his future plan in a fresh way.

The climate change is coming. To prepare for it, we need to admit that we can’t prevent it.
For outstanding heroism in the field (despite himself), computational demonologist Bob Howard is on the fast track for promotion to management within the Laundry, the supersecret British government agency tasked with defending the realm from occult threats. Assigned to External Assets, Bob discovers the company (unofficially) employs freelance agents to deal with sensitive situations that may embarrass Queen and Country. So when Ray Schiller—an American televangelist with the uncanny ability to miraculously heal the ill—becomes uncomfortably close to the Prime Minister, External Assets dispatches the brilliant, beautiful, and entirely unpredictable Persephone Hazard to infiltrate the Golden Promise Ministries and discover why the preacher is so interested in British politics. And it’s Bob’s job to make sure Persephone doesn’t cause an international incident. But it’s a supernatural incident that Bob needs to worry about—a global threat even the Laundry may be unable to clean up…
